MS wants to sell their software as a service!
(I am not referring to the Windows Update found in Windows 98/2K or the Software Update found in Mac OS 9. Those are the best, so far, in painless software updating that I've found.) Mac OS updates can take about ten to twenty minutes, and maybe require a few application updates to fix issues.

After what I went through (and what Roger still seems to be going through) I'd either hold off, download the combo or, preferably, both. I've a nasty feeling that 10.5.2 is going to generate more than the normal amount of horror stories. Hmm. Perhaps I should leave off updating to Leonard on my iLamp.
Antivirus software updating over ISA
Hmm. Perhaps I should leave off updating to Leonard on my iLamp. I would love to get a new Mac, but the credit cards must be left alone for now. Yeah I'd stick with Tiger on the lamp unless it offers some feature you'd really need. I'm still on Tiger on both the MDD & the MacBook despite the fact I've got a Leonard

what's the right way to update?
For a reasonable monthly fee, even I would subscribe to something like that since it offers the same convenient updating service that Ubuntu offers except that it only installs quality software (and not the crap that Linux users consider default and decent).

I think all the "software updating" they do is the PRL, that's it.
